Non-Insured Disaster Assistance Program (NAP)

Growers of fruit and vegetable crops, not covered by crop insurance, can insure their crops through the USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) Non-Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP). NAP provides catastrophic coverage at 50% of the potential production and 55% of the established price. The 2014 Farm Bill provided for "buy-up" coverage under NAP. Individual crops can now be covered up to 65% of the potential production and up to 100% of the established price for the crop. For more information and applicable deadlines, visit your local FSA office.
